  • Oven Baked Nachos Chips Recipe #BreadBakers
March 10, 2020

Who doesn’t like Nachos Chips? I think people of all ages enjoy this snack. Now let’s try my oven baked nachos chips recipe. The best thing about this snack is that you just have to change the dip and it is an all-new recipe. Pretty versatile!

Also known as Tortilla chips, these are primarily used in Mexican cuisine and are often served with cheese dip or salsa.

It is a simple and easy snack recipe made with healthy ingredients. I have used the combination of Maize flour and whole wheat flour to make these Mexican baked Nacho chips.

Apart from the ingredients, I have opted for the healthiest way to make these Nachos Chips. Instead of deep-frying, I have baked these Nachos.

Interested in more healthy snacks, try my recipes of Amaranth Crackers and Garlic Crackers.

Alright, do not compare the taste of homemade baked nachos chips with market bought fried nachos chips. You cannot compare them. That’s what I feel.

So initially you or your family might feel the difference in the taste of these homemade healthy Baked Nachos. But as soon as you adapt the taste of it, you will love eating them as these baked nachos chips are absolutely guilt-free.

PS: It took 4 nachos chips within which my son shouted, Mom, these actually taste great and I am sure you will not ask me to stop eating them as they are baked not fried.

So without wasting time, let’s get to the recipe!

Nachos Chips Recipe Baked

In a saucepan, boil the water. It should be really hot while mixing with flour.

In another mixing bowl, add maize flour, whole wheat flour, salt. Black pepper and baking soda. Mix all the ingredients and start adding hot water. Mix everything using a spatula and be careful while mixing as water will be hot.

Baked-Nachos-Chips-Dry-Ingredients

Add oil and make a stiff but smooth dough. As every flour has a different absorption capacity, so if you feel the dough is dry, add water accordingly.

Keep oven for preheating at 180 °C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Dough-of-Baked-Nachos-Chips

Divide the dough into two portions and roll each portion into a thin sheet using two layers of parchment paper. While rolling, make sure it’s of even thickness else baking will not be even.

Now using a knife cut the rolled sheet into small triangles and prick it well.

So pricking here is important, else your baked nachos chips will puff up.

Shaped-Nacho-dough

Place all the shaped nachos on a lined baking tray and bake it in a preheated oven at 180 °C for 20 minutes.

Every oven behaves differently so you know your oven better. Based upon your oven the baking time can differ. So bake the nachos until these become crispy.

Once baked, take out the tray from the oven and serve freshly baked Nachos Chips with your choice of dip. My family loves to have these with cheese dip or tandoori mayonnaise.

  • Hi Sonia. Thank you for the recipe. Did you mean 1/2 tsp of baking soda or 1.2 tsp in the recipe? I tried it with 1tsp and it tastes of excess soda. Was wondering if 1/2 tsp would be enough.

  • how can we bake if we don’t have an oven and we are using a cooker? Also, please suggest if we can use corn flour instead of Maize flour ??

  • Hi,
    I tried the recipe in exact same amounts (using measuring cups & spoons) as mentioned. The taste of baking soda over powered the chips and tasted bad. This has happened with me before. Baking soda in amounts, even in cakes ruins the taste of the food.

    mam tried the bake they were great but just asking if I fry them would it make a difference for a change i mean

    • Fried ones are not going to be dry as the baked ones, but you will end up eating oil in large quantities. the purpose of baking is to avoid the unnecessary oil entering into the body.

      Happy Baking!

  • This is such a beautiful recipe Sonia. We have locally grown and milled cormeal . Now I know how to use it 🙂 And definitely, homemade is the best. Your pictorials are so helpful in baking these.

    • Namita,

      There is no comparison to homemade and when it is made with locally grown ingredients, it becomes more healthy. I seriously want to visit your town as it looks like heaven from your pictures.

      Happy Baking!
      Sonia

  • In Texas – or at least the part that has the local grocery store H-E-B, we call what you made, mitad y mitad which means half and half. Half corn and half wheat. They are my absolute favorite tortillas. I look forward to trying your baked chips, Sonia!
